Jenny C. Posted August 1, 2013 Share Posted August 1, 2013 I'm in the middle of my Whole30 and have figured out something HUGE for me. When I eat fruits I don't sleep and I have horrible brain fog the next day. When I don't eat fruits, I don't. I've never been someone who eats a lot of foods with added sugar. But I used to binge on fruits. (I'm not kidding. I could buy a bag of cherries and eat them all. And raisins and other dried fruits were also "favorites.") Why it took the Whole30 challenge for me to figure that out, I don't know. Brain fog has been an enormous problem for me -- really debilitating. So I'm obviously DONE with fruits. Here's my question for anyone who might know. What was actually happening in my head when I had brain fog? What IS brain fog?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bet Posted August 1, 2013 Share Posted August 1, 2013 Could be fructose malabsorption but that also usually cases a lot of stomach distress http://findwholeness.hubpages.com/hub/The-Fructose-Intolerance-Diet Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
praxisproject Posted August 5, 2013 Share Posted August 5, 2013 Do you eat your fruits in a meal? Before Whole30, I had always had them on an empty stomach, as a snack. I tolerate them (blood sugar) much better with meals. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
